I keep on fallin', and somethin's pullin me down
I keep on callin', but ain't nobody else around
And just when I think I lost myself is when I figured out that I'm found
And now I think it's time to pull, myself right back up on to solid ground
Feel the breeze when it blows, and it's so cold
All alone, when I roam in my own zone
Misplaced in a place that is no home
While my soul fades away like the ozone
And my ground is real shaky now
No foundation here to brace me now
Try to stand like a man wit a plan, but everybody wanna try to break me down
Negativity, never let it get to me, knowin' that the weight of it can take me down
If that's all that you givin' me, you ain't no friend to me, you the enemy that makes me drown
Tryin' to stay above the water line wit snakes hangin at the border line
At the edge with they hands out, lookin' for a handout, but they ain't trying' to throw me no support or line
Then they go try to ignore my shine
Call me dark, wit no heart, but I'm fittin' ta spark till I rip apart little marks up
Wanna start, and you might wanna fight, but I'm bright like a light in the night, and the darkness
Ain't nothin' you can tell me Jack
I break the chains in my brain that have held me back
I overcame all the pain, been through hell and back
So I don't worry bout haters and how they'll react
I could care less, hit em in the bare chest
Then I'm fittin' ta stare d**h down like I'm careless
My awareness got me knowin' they're next
Plottin' over their threats, watchin' over their steps
Sometimes you gotta lose to win
You fall down, rebuild, get up, do it again
Put your back to the wall, get to movin' again
Cuz in the end, my friend, you gotta choose to win
Feel the breeze when it blows in the night and it's oh so cold
Tryin' to do my best to stay above the ground
Back and forth, tug of war, is a game played with my soul
And everybody wanna try to pull me down
So how will I find the strength to overcome
When everything around me's tumblin' down
But I know that I will not stop until I've won
And I'm standin' back on solid ground
Feel the breeze when it blows and it's so cold
All alone on my own and I'm feelin' froze
No home cuz I know there's nowhere to go
Tug of war wit my soul, I can feel the pull
People wanna bring me low when they get a hold
So I gotta battle foes to get on my toes
Doesn't matter when I'm close to losin' control
Unstable but I'm able to hold on to hope
Love your neighbor but they're evil and wicked with sin
So I'm diggin' deep, lookin' within
To find the strength to compete and win
Got me slippin' with no grip again
But it's different cuz I'm off the edge, in a plummet to the darkest depths
Steady fallin' wit no balance left, my heart pounds but I lost my breath
Need a second just to brace for this, ain't a secret my support's a myth
But I know if I quit then that's it, can't just sit cuz I'll sink like a brick
Must commit to get up out this pit, cuz I'm stuck wit no lift, but I'll never submit
To this torment and think that I'll live, everybody wants a little more than I can give
Starvin', lookin' at my ribs like a skeleton but it's evident they wanna get my bread, leave me left for dead
k** my confidence, but I'm positive more than ever now, I found no matter how
I gotta get to solid ground, I can never let em bring me down cuz I'll drown from the hate around
And I'd rather make my daughter proud, when I take a bow for the crowd that can only doubt
Never tried to help me out, only wanna run their mouth
Like I won't amount to squat, but I'm on solid ground with the top on lock
Feel the breeze when it blows in the night and it's oh so cold
Tryin' to do my best to stay above the ground
Back and forth, tug of war, is a game played with my soul
And everybody wanna try to pull me down
So how will I find the strength to overcome
When everything around me's tumblin' down
But I know that I will not stop until I've won
And I'm standin' back on solid ground
